Hi Alphonse
Didn't know the answer to #7 i don't think that advert was used in the UK
I didn't know it was a tribute to Buddy Holly - you're never to old to learn.
Got a busy couple of days, our granddaughter is coming to stay on Wednesday - 20 months old and very inquisitive, so things have to be put out of reach.
I knew everything except the name of the hobo and the Buddy Holly Tribute. Don't know if that makes me smart or full of useless information... lol
YesBut: You have a great time with your granddaugher. If she is like Owen , you will be exhausted, but in a good way. Have a great time.
Ticlog: It makes you very smart or almost as old as me. LOL
I only had to guess on #7---but I did guess it correctly!
Number 10---indeed. But just try saying that NOW, on the public airwaves, huh?
Number 11---so THAT'S why I ended-up in uniform---I burnt my sisters' underwear! (And I thought the reason she was ticked-off was because I didn't WRITE HOME enough...!)
Bruno: Excellent guess on #7. I know what you're saying about #10, and as for your sister's underwear--- remember, no good deed goes unpunished.
Yes, this is, or was, and still is---TRUE!
And, speaking of a hula-hoop. One of my favorite pranks I'd play on Sis was to pull the hoop apart at it's seam, fill it with a good dose of water, and plug it back together!
You'd think it wouldn't matter, but she couldn't make that thing spin regardless of how skillful she tried! That is, until it finally flew apart, and dumped the contents!
She learned to check it from then on, anytime she left it for longer than five minutes within my reach...!
Bruno: I am sitting here laughing. WHY Oh WHY am I not surprised at what you did. Hilarious.
Hi Moose. I'm upset. 'cause I didn't get a single one of these. You must be lots older than I am. And so are some others, I see.
Cat: You wouldn't try to fool me(us) would you. I didn't think so.
